Have Faith

Today’s Inspiration 😇

We cannot work our way into the Kingdom. It is through faith we are saved. 

Galatians 3:11 (NLT)

So it is clear that no one can be made right with God by trying to keep the law. For the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.” 

Don’t worship the law, love the Lord. 

It’s through love we are restored. 

Our faith is what God cannot ignore. 

When we follow Him we can live void of sin.  

The just should live by faith. 

Hebrews 11:6 (NLT)

And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕 you!

Protect Your Gifts

Today’s Inspiration 😇💪

Sometimes people hate us because we are blessed.  We find ourselves defending God’s blessings. They feel we have what they want or had. 

If you have had the courage to walk in your blessings, do not allow haters to make you feel guilty about your favor, your abundance, your healing, your gifts, your talents, or any other blessing the Lord has given you. 

Do not water down God’s glory so others can be comfortable. 

We have to fight to posses what God has given us and we cannot become swayed by every naysayer that crosses our path. 

Judges 11:23-24 (NLT)

“So you see, it was the Lord, the God of Israel, who took away the land from the Amorites and gave it to Israel. Why, then, should we give it back to you? You keep whatever your god Chemosh gives you, and we will keep whatever the Lord our God gives us.

We have to stand firm and defend what God has given us!

Do not allow adversity to cause you to abandon your blessings. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕 you!

Everlasting Love

Today’s Inspiration 😇❤️

Everlasting is a long time. Everlasting is forever. Everlasting is eternity. 

Imagine being loved forever. Imagine giving love forever. 

Jeremiah 31:3 (NKJV)

The Lord has appeared of old to me, saying:

“Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love;

Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you.

We often look for love in all the wrong places. There is one ☝️ that will love us forever. 

Can we give love in return? 

Can we give ourselves what our hearts truly yearn?

Can we surrender to the only one who is filled with splendor?

Can we commit to give God our all and never quit only to fall?

Can we reciprocate or are we going to take the enemy’s bait?

Can we accept the beauty of everlasting love from our Maker high above?

Jesus has drawn us with love and kindness and has promised to love us for eternity. Allow yourself to fall in love with Jesus and live with Him in perfect harmony. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕 you!

Are you Loyal

Today’s Inspiration 😇❤️

Are we loyal to God? Do our hearts belong to the Lord?

Psalms 78:34-37 (NLT)

.......... They repented and took God seriously. 

Then they remembered that God was their rock, that God Most High was their redeemer. But all they gave him was lip service; they lied to him with their tongues. Their hearts were not loyal to him. They did not keep his covenant.

Our actions will always follow our hearts. 

We have a choice to live according to God’s will or according to our will. 

When we say “the Lord knows my heart” and we do not obey the Lord, we are giving God lip service. We have lied with our tongues. 

Do not wait for trouble to come to give your heart to the Lord. 

God is merciful and understands our weaknesses. God is looking for believers that will say yes. Jesus desires our hearts and He will mold us into our purpose. 

Your heart governs your actions. 

It’s best to give it to God and remove all distractions. 

The world blinds you with temptations. 

Appealing to your feelings

Enticing you 

Exciting You 

Only to abandon you 

because the benefits are very few. 

Don’t forfeit your abundance for temporary indulgence. 

Live for the King and watch your enemies flee

Say yes to God 

As God has said yes to you. 

And the Spirit of the Lord will carry you, shape you, subdue you, wash you, and make you, the new you. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕 you!

It’s Working

Today’s Inspiration 💕😃

Romans 8:28 KJV

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Take heart and believe the word of God. 

You are called according to his purpose and it’s working for your good. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕 you!

What are you confessing?

Today’s Inspiration 😇😊

What is your response to adversity?

I often hear people say “If it’s not one thing it’s another.” I wonder.......what does God think when we make that statement?

Is God pleased with our confessions? Can we be trusted? Do we slightly curse God with our words of annoyance when examining our plight?

Job 1:14-19 (NLT)

a messenger arrived at Job’s home with this news:.....when the Sabeans raided us. They stole all the animals and killed all the farmhands.....

While he was still speaking, another messenger arrived: “The fire of God has fallen from heaven and burned up your sheep and all the shepherds......

While he was still speaking, a third messenger arrived with this news: “Three bands of Chaldean raiders have stolen your camels and killed your servants.....

While he was still speaking, another messenger arrived with this news: “Your sons and daughters were feasting in their oldest brother’s home....Suddenly, a powerful wind swept in from the wilderness and hit the house on all sides. The house collapsed, and all your children are dead. 

In an instant Job lost everything and still worshiped God. Job acknowledged God and His sovereignty. Job recognized God’s absolute rule and power over his life. 

Job 1:21-22 (NLT)

Job stood up and tore his robe in grief. Then he shaved his head and fell to the ground to worship. He said, “I came naked from my mother’s womb, and I will be naked when I leave. The Lord gave me what I had, and the Lord has taken it away. Praise the name of the Lord!” In all of this, Job did not sin by blaming God.

How do we respond during slight inconveniences? What are we confessing? Are we praising the Lord or are we focused on the problem and the pain?

Praise the Lord and know if you are going through God trust you. 

Weeping may endure for a night but joy is promised. Praise the Lord at all times. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕you!

Provide Comfort

Today’s Inspiration 😇

There are so many brothers and sisters in Christ suffering. Suffering from some of the trials we once suffered. 

When we hear suffering we should seek to comfort those as we were once comforted. 

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (NLT)

All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.

Be a comfort to those in need. Love with the love of Christ. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕 you!

Rebellion

Today’s Inspiration 😊😇

We have a way we think is right and then there is the right way. If our way is based on our feelings and not the word of God our way is not the right way. 

Where we spend our time influences our values. If we do not spend time with the Lord, and learn the ways of the Lord, we will believe the influences of our environment. 

Judges 2:12 (NLT)

They abandoned the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who had brought them out of Egypt. They went after other gods, worshiping the gods of the people around them. And they angered the Lord.

When we believe the way of the world it angers the Lord and the Lord will fight against us.  

Judges 2:15 (NLT)

Every time Israel went out to battle, the Lord fought against them, causing them to be defeated, just as he had warned. And the people were in great distress.

If you have turned your back on The Lord and you are constantly defeated, repent and give God your heart today. If God be for you who can be against you?

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves you!

Don’t look back

Today’s Inspiration 😇😊

When God delivered us, He rescued us from something dangerous. 

We cannot go back into captivity once we have been rescued. We cannot continue to socialize and entertain the people God delivered us from. 

When God delivers us from a lifestyle we have to leave the lifestyle and everything about it behind. 

We have to remove it from our lives completely or we find ourselves compromising our values and slowly falling back into captivity. 

Judges 2:1-2 (NLT)

The angel of the Lord went up from Gilgal to Bokim and said to the Israelites, “I brought you out of Egypt into this land that I swore to give your ancestors, and I said I would never break my covenant with you. 

For your part, you were not to make any covenants with the people living in this land; instead, you were to destroy their altars. But you disobeyed my command. Why did you do this?

Why do fail to destroy the things from our past that God delivers us from? 

Why do we tolerate people, places, or things that keep us bound to sin?

Do not give the devil a foothold into your life. If God has delivered you, leave the past in the past and completely remove it from your life. Cast it into the sea of forgetfulness and move forward into the ocean of peace, love, joy, and forgiveness. 

We cannot afford not to obey the Lord.

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕 you!

Power

Today’s Inspiration ☀️😊😇

If you are feeling weak your strength is in Jesus. 

If you need more power you need more prayer. 

More prayer more power. Less prayer less power. 

2 Samuel 22:33 (KJV)

God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.

If you are trying to find your way find Jesus. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕 you!

Beauty in Brokenness

Today’s Inspiration 🙏🏾😇

Your trial is not a punishment it is a promotion.

When we find ourselves in a barren place we must bless the Lord. 

In our lack God will strengthen us to walk upon our high places. 

Habakkuk 3:17-19 (NLT)

Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty

(KJV)

Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places.

Do not focus on what is missing or broken. Focus on Jesus. Keep your eyes on the Lord. Praise God and rejoice in the God of your salvation. Declare the word of the Lord and walk upon your high place. 

We often need to be stripped of some things to force us to go higher. 

When everything is blossoming our desire to move is often stagnate. 

God has a higher place just for you. 

God has prepared something greater. 

Your lack is not a punishment it is a promotion. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus Loves 💞you!

Love Deeply💞

Today’s Inspiration 💞💕

What does love mean to you? 

Who do you love more than anything? 

Who has your heart in their hands?

How do you demonstrate your love for them? 

Love is action! 

Love isn’t a thought or a feeling, it is a deep commitment that doesn’t change based on the circumstances. 

Love transcends time and space. 

Love is patient 

Love is kind

Love is a gift. 

Mark 12:30 (NLT)

And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.

Have you ever loved anyone with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength?

Have you given God everything you have? 

In what areas are you holding back? 

If your love for God was on trial would you be found guilty of loving God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength beyond a shadow of a doubt?

Intense exercise only uses 40% of our energy. Our bodies naturally store 60% in reserve. 

I challenge you to examine your love and determine who has you heart. If you think you have given God your all dig deep to your reserve. Don’t be afraid to declare the only true God is the God you serve. 

Declare it in the way you speak. 

Declare it in your forgiving heart. 

Declare it before each and every task you start. 

Declare it so you will be set apart. 

Declare it when opposition comes. 

Declare it when the enemy beats his drums. 

Declare it when you’re faced with trials that have no foreseeable end. 

Because someone is trying to comprehend if our God is a God in whom they can depend. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus Loves 💞you!

Wake up!

Today’s Inspiration 😴😳

Do you find yourself hitting the snooze button or sleeping in when your day should have began. Do you entertain yourself more than you work on cultivating your gifts or dreams? 

You are valuable. Your time is valuable. 

Your contributions to this world are still needed. 

Do not allow your dreams to die because time has passed you by. There is always work to be done. Your last day has not yet come. While you are here do not allow your gifts to disappear. Have faith and never fear. 

Do not compare, you are an original, your dreams are not typical, you can still achieve the unthinkable. 

Proverbs 6:6 (NLT)

Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones. Learn from their ways and become wise!

Jesus wants us to be productive. We were created to plant, water, be fruitful and multiply. 

Proverbs 9:6-11 (NLT)

But you, lazybones, how long will you sleep?

When will you wake up?

A little extra sleep, a little more slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest then poverty will pounce on you like a bandit; scarcity will attack you like an armed robber.

Do not allow sleep to keep you from your assignment. You are never too young or too old to be bold and make a difference. 

Where are you planting? 

What are watering?

Where is your fruit?

God desires for you to grow.

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💞 you!

I’m Sorry

Today’s Inspiration 😇🤗😊

Sometimes we find ourselves outside of God’s will and we forget to repent. When we sin we must repent with intent to change. 

There are some things we do that God hates. These things can occur without much thought. 

Proverbs 6:16-19 (NKJV)

These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:

A proud look

A lying tongue

Hands that shed innocent blood

A heart that devises wicked plans

Feet that are swift in running to do wrong

A false witness who speaks lies

And one who sows discord among brethren.

Remember to repent and change. 

Pride comes before a fall. 

God seems to hate lies above all. 

Keep your feet grounded in Jesus and God’s Holy Spirit would no longer be grievous.  Practice peace and refrain from discord by keeping your mind focused on the Lord. 

Jesus sees the wicked plans but holiness is the demand. 

Love God, love yourself, so you can love others. 

Only then can we begin to live the life that God purposed for us to win and Jesus will give us an expected end. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💞 you!

Allow God to Sing 🎶 To You!

Today’s Inspiration 😇😊

God desires to live among us, to save us, guide us, and protect us. 

Jesus desires to delight in us and rejoice over us!

Just like a good parent God desires the absolute best for his children. 

When we refuse God’s instructions and behave as spoiled children, we fall into self inflicted problems that grieve the Holy Spirit. 

Ephesians 4:30 (NLT)

And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you live. Remember, he has identified you as his own, guaranteeing that you will be saved on the day of redemption.

When we live for God and obey Jesus, God delights in us. 

Zephaniah 3:17 (NLT)

For the Lord your God is living among you.

He is a mighty savior.

He will take delight in you with gladness.

With his love, he will calm all your fears.

He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.”

Allow God to sing to you! 

Live for the Lord and watch God take you to where peace will saturate you in any storm and trusting God will be your norm. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💞 you!
